The Osun State Government on Thursday said it had provided about 15 hectares of land for large scale cultivation to boost food production in the state.

Dr Bukola Aluko, the coordinating director, Osun state Ministry of Agriculture, Food Security, and Youths Engagement, disclosed this in an interview with newsmen in Osogbo.

According to Aluko, the state government is collaborating with investors that will facilitate farming on large and commercial scales in the state.

“Through this collaboration, billions of naira will be invested in agriculture: planting, processing and packaging of farm produce.

“Currently, farmers that are interested in partnering the state government have started importing their raw materials.

“The state government on its part has provided between 10 hectares and 15 hectares of land to investors for cultivation of farm crops, “ he said.

He said that the state government would allocate plots of lands to farmers to cultivate crops like cassava, maize and soya beans on a large scale.

“The state government has set up an Agriculture Development Bank to address land allocation for farming, “he said. He said that the initiative would enhance the economy of the state and increase its revenue generation.

A very good one, anything and any development to alleviate poverty is welcomed instead of giving out #200 and one tin of rice. .

I don't think 15 Hectares of land is enough for any serious commercial farmland.

The 15 Hectares is to ensure that you don't die of hunger like 3 Million of your vision-less ancestors who went to war against those feeding them.

This must be breaking news of the year. 15 hectares from a state govt? Not even 150 hectares! Can food/returns from 15 hectares feed/sustain a street not to talk about a whole state?

Sounds like a plan. Does this bank also give low cost loans.

“The state government has set up an Agriculture Development Bank to address land allocation for farming, “he said. He said that the initiative would enhance the economy of the state and increase its revenue generation.

He said that the state government would allocate plots of lands to farmers to cultivate crops like cassava, maize and soya beans on a large scale.

Where in the whole of Osun can you get real, meaningful
land for farming without clearing a lot of natural vegetation/forests?
There's a reason why the North is king in large scale farming. They have large swathes of land.
Invest in tree crops like cocoa and oil palm, not grains and legumes.
Osun no get reasonable land for real food crop production.

1ha is 10,000 square metres or 100m X 100m.
15ha is 15 X 10000 = 150000 square metres, or 300m X 500m. A perimeter of 1.6km.
You can circle the whole land in minutes!
Tiny!
Ridiculous!
